Abstract

Au cours des quarante dernières années, un changement considérable s'est opéré dans la vision que les historiens ont de l'Islam et de son rôle dans l'histoire du monde. Sur le plan chronologique, on se rend mieux compte du fait que l'histoire de l'Islam constitue le lien entre l'ancien monde et le monde moderne. Sur le plan géographique, on mesure mieux le fait que la civilisation islamique, qui s'est développée au cœur de l'ensemble afro-eurasien, a été le premier pont historique reliant les deux extrémités de la zone de civilisation agraire pré-moderne s'étendant de Gibraltar à la Chine. De cette mutation, Marshall G.S. Hodgson fut sans contexte l'initiateur et l'agent le plus brillant. En se plaçant dans une perspective extérieure à l'Europe, Hodgson s'est donné les moyens de porter un regard neuf sur l'histoire mondiale. Dans le même temps, en sortant l'histoire de l'Islam du carcan étroit où l'avait tenue la tradition orientaliste, il a pu du même coup la dépoussiérer, l'enrichir et l'engager sur des voies inédites, qui, près de trente ans après sa mort, restent encore assez largement inexplorées

Abstract

This collection of seventeen original essays offers new perspectives on the history and sources of the crusades from the Council of Clermont in 1095 to the late fifteenth century, and of the societies they established in Palestine, Greece, Cyprus and the Baltic.The volume begins with a masterly survey of the concepts and strategies of the crusading movement. The historical case studies deal with the reigns of Baldwin I and Baldwin IV of Jerusalem, the role of castles in Greece and Cyprus, the military orders and crusade vows in England, and female warriors in the Baltic crusades. The essays on sources provide critical assessments and re-assessments of the narratives of the First and Fourth Crusades, introduce little known Arabic sources on the Muslim population of crusader Palestine, and analyse interpretations of the last days of the crusader kingdom in medieval theology and modern historiography. The volume concludes with a classified bibliography of the First Crusade, comprising over 400 texts, monographs and articles published up to 1997.

Abstract

From the middle of the eighth century to the tenth century, almost all non-literary and non-historical secular Greek books, including such diverse topics as astrology, alchemy, physics, botany and medicine, that were not available throughout the eastern Byzantine Empire and the Near East, were translated into Arabic.Greek Thought, Arabic Culture explores the major social, political and ideological factors that occasioned the unprecedented translation movement from Greek into Arabic in Baghdad, the newly founded capital of the Arab dynasty of the 'Abbasids', during the first two
